I have seen every aspect of basketball that you can see as a player, and I think they can relate to that, and I can understand them.
I think as men begin to see things that address them, they will feel that they can relate. They can't relate to 'Basketball Wives,' 'Housewives of Atlanta.' I am not judging or criticizing those shows at all; what I am saying is the perspective is not necessarily the male perspective. 'Iyanla: Fix My Life' is inclusive of everyone.
In the original script, my character was a basketball player rather than a boxer. I didn't think I could pull that off. I'm a little short to be a basketball player!
I was a mediocre basketball player. But I was there, and I could remember the plays. And my basketball coach, after he retired from teaching, would come to my performances all the time. And I was very happy about that, because I was not memorable as a basketball player.
Seven years ago, my father and I realized that our relationship was extremely unique, especially in the African-American community. He raised me to not only understand the fundamentals of basketball and to try to be a player with a high basketball IQ, but he wanted me to understand that my image and my name meant more than stats.
I think, growing up, I was seen as the perfect power forward. For a long time, I thought maybe I was supposed to be a basketball player.
A lot of people just think I'm a big man, but I'm a basketball player. I am able to do everything that a basketball player can do - from playmaking and scoring to just passing the ball and just being a leader and post presence.
I worked every day - Christmas Eve, birthdays - trying to become a great basketball player. Everywhere I went, I had a basketball.
You should sub a player out when you see a player not going full-speed or playing selfish basketball.
I think every player who truly loves basketball wants to be in the game at all times.
Who knows, maybe I'll be a basketball player one day? No, I'm definitely never going to be a basketball player. I have no hand-eye coordination.
What would surprise people about working with LeBron is he's really into the things that he's into. And I think people don't understand that. They just think he's a basketball player, he's super busy. But he actually pays attention.
It's funny because I think everybody when they see me, the first thing they say is, 'Man, you could have been a heck of a basketball player.' My response is, 'I have a heck of a life.' Basketball is such a minute thing in the big picture. I almost passed away at 21 years old.
I think basketball IQ, work ethic, competitiveness are probably the most important things in a basketball player.
I believe in the science. When you think about GMOs, I spend a lot of time on them, and I understand them. But I understand that my telling people on faith may not carry the day. They need to see it, understand it, [and we need to] arm them with facts, educate them, and let them make their choices.
I try to envision what life is after basketball, but I just see myself working out and just being a basketball player still.
Would I have been a great basketball player? No. But I think I would've been a good basketball player, one of those grinders getting eight to 10 rebounds. I would've been like Kobe and been in the gym five to seven hours a day and never missed a 10-foot jump shot. I would've been a great role player for a team.
